    02

    Picture Sudoku, made from your memories

    They open the puzzle page of a weekend magazine with your title across the top and their own face on it. Instead of numbers, the sudoku is made of five of your photos and their face: three puzzles, each harder than the last. Every row, column or box they complete writes one of your lines under the board in handwriting, each solved puzzle opens two of the photos whole, and the ending lays the three finished boards down as quilts of the family before your letter.

  3. 03

    A keepsake to come back to

    Every photo and every word you added, shown large, on a page that is theirs to reopen.

Open a sample gift and see all three

After you pay, a short form asks for the names and for these:

How it plays

A few minutes they will not forget.

About 4–6 minutes

  1. Tap a square, then the picture that belongs there.

  2. Each picture goes once in every row, column and box.

  3. Finish a row to read the line written about one of its pictures.

Tap an empty square and then a picture, or the other way round; press and hold a square to pencil in maybes.

Nobody can lose. The game helps anyone who gets stuck, so they always reach what you wrote.

Good to know

Do they need to install anything?
No. The gift opens in the browser on any phone or computer.
What if they are not good at games?
This one helps a player who gets stuck, and nobody can lose. They always reach what you wrote.
Can I see it before I send it?
Yes. You play the finished game and see the keepsake before the link exists.
When do I add my photos and words?
Right after you pay. The link is only created when you are happy with the gift.
What if I spot a mistake after sending it?
Change it. The words, the photos and the options can all be changed afterwards, and the link stays the same.
How long does the gift stay online?
At least a year from the day you create the link.
Who can see our photos?
Only people who have the link. Your photos and words are used for this gift and nothing else, and you can delete the whole gift from your account at any time.
Can I get my money back?
No. A gift is made for one person from the moment you pay, so a sale is final. That is why you can open a full sample before you buy, see your own finished gift before the link exists, and still change it after you have sent it.
